These days I have been preparing my TOEFL test because I want to study abroad in America. And then I started playing the movies in my pocket list.

Today I’d spent my morning watching this famous movie, “Forrest Gump”. I’d like to share with you all guys about what I learned from this movie and some of the lovely parts in it.

First of all, I admired that Forrest spirit of JUST DO IT!

I really like some sentences in this movie, and I also think there’s the way he succeeded. Here’s below:

  1. No matter what happens, never ever take your eye off the ball. (This was mentioned in playing the Ping-Pong game, but I think it fits every situation when you wanna get some goals or doing something well.)
  2. That’s one small step for man but a giant leap for humankind.
  3. I’m a man of my word. 我是守承諾的人
  4. I did the best I could.
  5. There’s no particular reason. I just kept running. When I had to go. I went.

Some useful sayings in life I learned from this “Forrest Gump”.

“ Life is like a box of chocolate, you’ve never known what you’re going to get.”
“ If we each have a destiny or if we’re all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze. Maybe both of them get happening at the same time. “
“ You got to put the past behind you before you can move on.”
“ I hope everything works out for you.” 祝某人一切順利

And the song accompanied on it also lovely.

  1. Lynyrd Skynyrd — Sweet Home Alabama

  2. Jackson Browne — Running on empty

If there are any mistakes, you could let me know.
I’ll really appreciate you for doing this!
